Your Procedure
Dr. Cutolo analyzes your facial wrinkles and lines to determine the areas to treat. He may apply a cream containing local anesthesia on your skin to keep you comfortable throughout your procedure. Dr. Cutolo then uses a very fine needle to precisely inject the BOTOX Cosmetic into the targeted areas. After your treatment, he applies ice to your skin to minimize any residual discomfort or swelling.
Recovery
No downtime is required, and you can return to your regular routine directly after your treatment. However, Dr. Cutolo does recommend that you limit exercise, the use of cosmetics, or lying flat for at least 4 hours after your treatment. In addition, he advises avoiding massaging or rubbing the treated area for a minimum of 24 hours.
To achieve a more complete facial rejuvenation, Dr. Cutolo may recommend other enhancing treatments, such as dermal fillers, chemical peels, or fat transfer. He also will discuss with you how frequently you should return to maintain the results, which usually last 3 to 6 months.
Results and Benefits
Those annoying crow's feet, smile lines, and frown lines are noticeably diminished after treatment with BOTOX Cosmetic. Dr. Cutolo's patients often say that they don't just look younger and refreshed – their rejuvenated appearance makes them feel that way too!
